The screen locks itself too quickly
If you leave your computer for a few minutes, the screen will automatically lock itself so you have to enter your password to start using it again. This is done for security reasons (so no one can mess with your work if you leave the computer unattended), but it can be annoying if the screen locks itself too quickly.
To wait a longer period before the screen is automatically locked:
Open the Activities overview and start typing Privacy.
Click on Privacy to open the panel.
Press on Screen Lock.
If Automatic Screen Lock is on, you can change the value in the Lock screen after blank for drop-down list.
If you don’t ever want the screen to lock itself automatically, switch the Automatic Screen Lock switch to off.
